It is wonderful to feel good and to be in a more normal routine. I am sleeping well at night, getting some excercise by walking daily, enjoying some wonderful summer days and some beautiful little grandbabies and rejoicing with friends and family that I no longer have a daily focus on medical treatments. All of these things make a lot of difference for me mentally. I could almost forget that the word cancer was a part of my life and that is a very good thing!
I will have more updates several times in August as I have a follow up mammogram and appointment with Dr. Rafat Ansari, my oncologist.
A paragraph out of the book called “Safe In The Shepherd’s Arms” by Max Lucado says…
“You have a God who hears you, the power of love behind you, the Holy Spirit within you, and all of heaven ahead of you. If you have the Shepherd, you have grace for every sin, direction for every turn, a candle for every corner, and an anchor for every storm. You have EVERYTHING you need.” Now, isn’t that the truth? It adds greater insight to the beginning of Psalm 23. The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. What else do we need?
Love,
Carmel
